Setting up RF channels on the
MR3
To avoid any interaction between neighbouring MR3 installations, the MR3
offers a choice of four RF channels for remote commands.
As delivered, the MR3 main unit is set to Channel Zero. This will not normally
need alteration. At installation and when the batteries are replaced, the X-
pander remote control must also be set to channel 0 to ensure communication
between the two units..

the
X-pander

RF Channel setup procedure
